Not long after he started walking, a young cultivator, a second-level Qi refinement practitioner, approached respectfully and said, “Senior, have you just arrived in Bai Yue Fairy City? Do you need a guide? It only costs one low-grade spirit stone per day.”

As Su Yu looked at him, the young man appeared skinny and dark, resembling a small monkey, with a respectful demeanor that belied a hint of shrewdness.

Su Yu nodded, “You can come along then.”

The young man was delighted and quickly followed behind Su Yu, cautiously asking, “Where would the senior like to go?”

Su Yu replied, “Just wandering around. Tell me about Bai Yue Fairy City.”

The boy perceives his meaning and whilst walking, he explained, “Bai Yue Fairy City was founded by True Man Bai Yue. There are three disciples directly under his command, controlling the Spirit Hall, Battle Hall, and Truth Hall, respectively.”

“The Spirit Hall controls all the Spirit fields and harvest of spiritual objects in the Fairy City, including the trading of caves and houses within and outside the city except for the core region.”

“This is under the control of Elder Tianpu, the first disciple of the True Man.”

“The Battle Hall controls all the guard teams in the Fairy City, including the combat troop.”

“This is controlled by Fairy Fengling, the second disciple of the True Man.”

“The Truth Hall attracts cultivators proficient in various arts to the Fairy City, a sector recently founded by Xu Wansheng, the third disciple of the True Man.”

The youngster continues, “The concentration of spiritual energy outside the Fairy City is about the same as that of a level one spirit vein blessed land. Most of the residents here are in the Qi refinement stage or people without a spiritual root, making it rather chaotic.”

“The houses or caves within the city are comparable to the concentration of a level two spirit vein blessed land. Most inhabitants there are in the late Qi refining stage or in the Foundation Establishment Realm. The core area has caves that carry the spiritual energy of a level three spirit vein blessed land.”

After a glance at Su Yu, he cautiously asked, “Would you prefer to stay outside city or inside city?”

After contemplating for a moment, Su Yu said, “Let’s go to the inner city.” “Do you know of any good places to buy houses in the inner city?”

“Yes, I do.”

The young man noted Su Yu’s requirements, then led him towards the inner area of Bai Yue Fairy City, separated from the outside by a big array.

Crossing the entrance of the inner city gate, a surge of even stronger nature’s spiritual energy hit him on the face.

The youngster took Su Yu to five places before finally selecting a vacant courtyard at the end of an alley as the final destination.

The courtyard was small, featuring a front yard and three rooms.

Each of the three rooms had a secret chamber beneath them for solitary cultivation.

Su Yu spent 1300 low-grade spirit stones to buy it, of which nearly 100 low-grade spirit stones went as transaction fees to the Spirit Hall.

There were six courtyards on the same street, and except for Su Yu’s, the other five were occupied.

The boy seemed quite familiar with this place and knew the inhabitants of the five yards.

“Seniors, the courtyard opposite to ours is occupied by two fairy maidens from Drunken Fairy House. You’re lucky to have such a view.”

“And the courtyard next to ours is home to a top-tier level one artifact refiner.”

“The courtyard at the outermost is inhabited by a family of four, primarily operating the spirit fields of the Fairy City.”

“Of the two remaining houses, one is occupied by a top-tier level one Talisman Master who has joined the Truth Hall and is a cultivator of the Truth Hall.”

“The other cottage has a ninth-level Qi refinement cultivator residing in it, who leads a secluded life. Few have seen him and nobody knows what he does.”

After completing the transaction for the yard, Su Yu went for a stroll around the place with the boy and bought some stuff for the yard.

A few streets away from here is a market.

It was bustling with both shop outlets and stalls run by Loose Cultivators.

Su Yu even saw shops selling second-order monster blood essence, second-order talismans, and other materials.

On the way back, the boy took Su Yu around to see the Drunken Fairy House he had mentioned before.

Seeing the fairy maidens turning into singers and dancers in the distance, a person might look on and mutter under his breath, ‘How shameless, why didn’t they invite me?’ before moving on.

However, Su Yu merely took a distant look. As faint harmonious sounds of string instruments came from the Drunken Fairy House, he mulled it over.

The hundreds of arts of cultivation include music arts.

He wondered if the music arts practised within were decent or not.

Cough.

Let’s return home.

Handing the young man a low-grade Spirit Stone as a hardship fee, Su Yu returned to his yard alone and began arranging his room.

He then set up a top-notch first class defensive formation in the yard and installed a Spirit Gathering Formation in the secret chamber of his room.

“Mission accomplished.”

Su Yu nodded in satisfaction, now having a den in the Immortal City.

Although it was still very simple, he could slowly procure whatever he needed later.

Next, Su Yu sat cross-legged in his secret chamber and began his cultivation for the day.

Setting up his small courtyard had cost him 1,300 low-grade Spirit Stones. He still had a small coffers of nearly 3,000 low-grade Spirit Stones.

What seemed like a lot might not last him a year of cultivation, due to the possible consumption of 800 to 1,000 low-grade Spirit Stones.

Aside from that, there were the level advancements and skill proficiency of alchemists, talisman masters, and puppet masters to think about.

Especially for a puppet master, he was still missing half of the resources for the second-order dragon crocodile puppet beast.

This would require at least 2,000 more low-grade Spirit Stones.

“After settling down, I need to figure out how to make money,” Su Yu pondered.

Alchemy, talismans, and puppets… all could be used to make money.

But—

He was not planning to show all his cards.

“So, on the surface, I’ll just go by the Alchemist’s identity.”

“If alchemy isn’t enough to balance my income and expenses, then selling some talismans on the sly could be fine.”

After completing his daily cultivation, Su Yu thought of Chen Sisi, who had come to the Fairy Bai Yue’s base in the Immortal City earlier.

Pondering for a moment, Su Yu thought to himself, “After settling down, I should invite her over.”

After all, they were old acquaintances.

Late at night, two women with veils were walking arm in arm down the alley when they suddenly exclaimed, “Someone has moved in across the street?”

The next morning, while Su Yu was practicing the Golden Cicada Method, a knock came from the outside.

When Su Yu opened the door, there stood a woman in a light blue dress with a white veil on her face.

While her face couldn’t be clearly seen, she was definitely at least an eight out of ten in terms of beauty.

Moreover, she had an ethereal air about her that made her seem like a fairy from the mortal world.

Seeing her, Su Yu was momentarily stunned.

However, he quickly recovered, asking in surprise, “You are…”

Chuckling, the woman handed over a fruit basket, saying, “I’m your neighbor across the street, Lan Xi. I saw you moved in last night, so I came over to visit today. Here are some ordinary Spirit Fruits, I hope you don’t mind.”

Taking the fruit basket, Su Yu responded, “Su Yu. As for minding, of course not.

Thank you, Taoist Friend.”

Then, he apologized, “I should be the one paying a visit. My apologies.”

After chatting for a while, the woman asked, “May I know what Su Taoist Friend is good at?”

Su Yu answered, “Alchemy. I’m a first-grade alchemist. If Taoist Friend Lan Xi needs any elixirs, feel free to seek me.”

Lan Xi’s eyes lit up, “An alchemist? Ha ha ha, great! When it comes to discounts, you’ll have to give me one. Now, we have an alchemist, an artifact refiner, and a talisman master in our alley.”

Not long after, the woman took her leave.

After chatting, Su Yu had a deeper understanding of his other neighbors. The woman’s sister was named Lan Gong.

Both were professional musicians of Drunken Immortal Tower, skilled at playing musical instruments.

Lan Xi had reached the eighth level of Qi Refinement, while Lan Gong was at the seventh.

Su Yu decided to visit them later. As for a gift, he could give them a bottle of Qi Refining Pills.

Gift exchange would be established this way, and he could visit other neighbors when he had the chance.

As for how to set up his alchemy business, he still needed to give it some thought..
